Amazon Prime Video Availability: Does anyone have this problem?

The menu is not all-inclusive of all available prime videos; it shows most popular and recent adds, along with Editor's choice. You need to use the search function if the movie/show you want isn't showing up. However, search will also return pay videos too, so make sure your settings are configured to prompt you for a password before playing that type, just in case you accidentally try to start one.

Same answer as someone else - it's not available anywhere locally so am stuck getting it online. As I have prime, usually the shipping costs offset the extra Amazon charges, but honestly didn't look too hard for it elsewhere.

Amazon Video is one of the apps. With my Amazon Prime membership I am able to watch 'free with Prime' titles, and rent others for cash (I have not done so).

Samsung and Amazon work fine on other models, but not this one. Tons of chatter on the net with this. I just went several rounds with Amazon, and they claimed that the hardware (ie processor) won't work with their service. Personally, I find it baloney. , Other models of Samsung before and after work just fine. And other software such as Netflix work without issue. Their answer was to buy a Roku. Personally, I'd skip Prime and stay with Netflix. I'd think long and hard about buying Samsung again too. They both really pissed me off. So sorry.

I haven't tried to use it for Amazon Prime. I searched for Amazon Prime and did not see it listed. I may well have missed a link. Perhaps Raymond could explain how he accesses it on this player.

Not sure about Amazon Prime, but I can stream videos from Hula Plus and Netflix. This is a fantastic product.

I'm doing a trial of Prime, and I'm afraid if the streaming won't work, there's little point in actually signing up - Netflix will have to do for now. I think Prime has some great content, but I'm not keen on camping in front of my PC to watch the movies - much rather be able to watch over the game console on the actual TV. Too bad - it's a great price, even compared to Netflix, but steep for the limited capabilities.

I downloaded the latest software updates two weeks ago and I do not see Amazon Prime on my unit, but I've been very happy with the performance in the one year that I've owned it.

Personally, I have had no issues using the Amazon Prime Application on this t.v. So, the answer is yes.

Yes, I agree. I was at first excited to see so many videos I'd like to see listed as Amazon Prime Eligible videos, but am frustrated to discover that they are not available on my home television. If this is not fixed within the month, I doubt I will be extending my amazon prime trial into a full membership. How strange they would alienate an entire range of customers by not developing what must surely be a simple-to-make samsung app.

No, I've had mine for most of the year. It came with an Amazon icon on the premium tab, along with Netflix, Vudu, etc. When you clicked on the Amazon icon a screen message popped up explaining that Amazon would be available in a future update. A month or so later I got a message about updating the firmware and let it do that. After that there was no longer any Amazon icon at all. There has been two more updates since then and still no Amazon Prime. There is probably a conflict between LG and Amazon since they both want to sell content and apps.

Sorry to split hairs, but the server issues are on Netflix's end. Netflix has had server issues since they upgraded the interface the first week of June (they've since stopped rolling it out to all users). It seems to only happen during prime viewing hours though. If you are having problems with services other than netflix and at odd hours I'd look for another problem, either with the roku box itself, your router, or your ISP. I haven't experienced problems with other services but I don't use Amazon on Demand. There may be a correlation between netflix and amazon as I read netflix migrated to Amazon's servers. Try some of the other channels to determine if it's a problem with anything else (nasa tv? pandora? etc). Netflix's engineers are struggling to find the correct content to display on their main screen without overloading the servers, it changes almost daily. I expect they'll get it resolved soon but it's been a bad couple weeks for them. For more information check rokulab's user forum: http://forums.rokulabs.com/viewforum.php?f=28

No. I called Panasonic, and the technician said that Amazon could not be added to the list of video services for this model. I sent it back.

I agree 100%. Amazon needs to provide an app for Prime Member videos. Maybe they could incorporate it into the UnBox program. I'd personally like an app both for my PC and my Android. Otherwise I won't be renewing next year.

Hello Kathryn. I have never had any difficulty using Amazon Prime with this television? I use it frequently in fact. What issues arise for you?

Super Easy. I actually just bookmarked my (Amazon) video library. When I want to watch prime or other movies, I'm a click away!
